2. Cross multiplication method.
1/14+16 using LCM Method:
What is 1/14 plus 16 as a fraction?
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/14
Fraction B: 16/1
What to be found?
1/14+16 = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/14 and 16.
step 2 Compare the denominators of fractions 1/14 and 16 to identify whether it is a like or unlike fraction addition. Since the denominators of given fractions 1/14 and 16 are not equal, it is said to be unlike fractions addition.
step 3For unlike fractions addition, find the LCM (least common multiple) of both denominators of fractions 1/14 and 16:
The LCM of 14 and 1 is 14.
step 4 Write the fractions 1/14 and 16 in the addition expression form and multiply LCM with all the numerators and denominators of both fractions.
=1/14+16
=(1 x 14)/(14 x 14)+(16 x 14)/(1 x 14)
step 5 Simplify the expression to have common denominator:
=1/14+224/14
step 6 Take the common values out and rewrite the above expression like the below:
=1/14 x (1/1+224/1)
=1/14 x (1 + 224)
step 7Simplify the above expression further:
=1/14 x 225
=225/14
1/14+16=225/14
Hence,
1/14 plus 16 equals to 225/14 in fraction.
1/14+16 using Cross Multiplication Method:
step 1 Observe the input parameters and what to be found:
Input:
Fraction A: 1/14
Fraction B: 16/1
What to be found?
1/14+16 = ?
Find what's the sum of 1/14 and 16.
step 2 Find the product of numerator of Fraction A and denominator of Fraction B (1 x 1), find the product of numerator of Fraction B and denominator of Fraction A (16 x 14), and find the product of both denominators of Fraction A and Fraction B (14 x 1) and rewrite the equation as like the below:
= (1 x 1) + (16 x 14)/(14 x 1)
step 3 Simplify and rewrite the fraction:
= (1 + 224)/14
1/14+16 = 225/14
Hence,
1/14 plus 16 = 225/14
